Join Stalley for a preview of Savage Journey to the American Dream in this piece that takes you behind the scenes of his mixing session with Young Guru at Converse’s Rubber Tracks studio for his new project. Savage Journey to the American Dream is coming soon.

This Friday marks the six-year anniversary of the death of massively influential producer James Yancey, aka J Dilla. In commemoration, the Fillmore in Detroit will host Dilla Day Detroit, featuring performances from Detroit native Danny Brown, Jay Electronica, Busta Rhymes, A Tribe Called Quest’s Phife Dawg, J Rocc, Phat Kat, and more.

The commemorative show will be webcast, and proceeds from the show will go toward the J Dilla Foundation and to the production of an upcoming album of Dilla material, Rebirth of Detroit. On Saturday, a Dilla Day for youth will take place, featuring exhibitions and interactive emceeing and production tutorials.

Strangely, Megaupload even was able to gain the support of some music stars. Swizz Beatz, the veteran hip-hop producer who is married to Alicia Keys, consulted for the company and was considering an offer to become CEO. Sources say the producer persuaded friends, including Kanye West, Diddy and Chris Brown, to appear in the “Mega Song” promotional video in 2011 – which begins with Will.i.am rapping, “When I gotta send files across the globe, I use Megaupload.” “[Swizz] is not CEO, although they were in serious talks for him to become CEO,” says a source familiar with the producer’s situation. “They were quite a way along, but they hadn’t finalized it.”

The U.S. investigation into Megaupload, which took two years in partnership with law-enforcement agencies in New Zealand, Hong Kong, Germany and elsewhere, allegedly uncovered incriminating e-mails; a PayPal account that received more than $110 million from subscribers; and international bank-account transfers totaling millions of dollars. “The sheer income of Megaupload proves that they’re profiting immensely from the works of American creators,” says Steve Bogard, president of the National Songwriters Association. “It’s unconscionable.”

Yeah John Wall’s body language is hilarious, giving him the “c’mon man get your ass back here and set this pick so we can run this play”…and then had the nerve to try and throw an oop to him knowing damn well dude just sprinted about 2 court lengths in the last 30 seconds. LMAO x smh at the Wizards.

He isn’t concerned with publicity, on his last mix tape (verde terrance) he rap that his career is just a side hustle. Dude releases music to remain relevant and tour.

I figured he was going to drop something soon. Last year the dropped a mix tape in January so I figured spitta was ready to release some heat to the streets. No need for publicity when your fan base is expecting/waiting on new music…
